Pabna Rebellion : 1873 - 85

  • Pabna rebellion started in Pabna district of West Bengal. Pabna area was famous for jute cultivation.
  • The main reason for this rebellion was the unrest expressed by the peasants in the 1870s and early 1880s. The reason for the unrest of the farmers was to increase the rates of rent by the landlords more than the legal limit. Along with this, they started trying to snatch the lands of the tenants or farmers from them or to deprive them of their rights. The landlords also started doing many kinds of atrocities on the farmers for their selfishness.
  • Due to the dissatisfaction of the landlords among the farmers, in 1873, a farmer's union was established in Yusufsahi pargana of Pabna district. This union organized the farmers.
  • Kisan Sangh did things like rent strike, non-payment of rent, collecting donations for the expenses incurred in filing lawsuits against the landlords. The expansion of this movement was within the purview of the law. Except for some sporadic incidents, this movement remained peaceful.
  • The main leaders of the Pabna rebellion were Ishanchandra Rai, Keshavchandra Rai, Shambhupal etc.
  • Violent incidents took place in the Pabna rebellion when they had to fight with the police or landlords to save the documents.
  • The commission appointed by the government to inquire into the causes and nature of the Pabna rebellion considered poverty and the consequent indebtedness of the peasantry as the main cause of the rebellion.
  • The slogan given by the leaders of this movement was, "We want to be the vassals of the Queen and only the Queen."
  • Since this rebellion was limited only to the legal scope, only the Indian Penal Code was resorted to in its suppression, no armed action was taken.
  • The Pabna rebellion ended only in 1876, but due to some sporadic incidents, some historians consider its end as 1885 because in 1885, the Bengal Tenancy Act came into force.
  • The main reason for the success of Pabna rebellion was the cooperation and work done shoulder to shoulder by every class and community. Which was a unique example of communal harmony.
  • This movement also got support from the intellectual class of Bengal. The Indian Association and some nationalist newspapers also insisted on the stabilization of rent prices.
  • Bankimchandra Chatterjee and RC Dutt supported the Pabna rebellion.

Fault – Endogenous Force

Fault – Endogenous Force The relief of our earth is full of variations and contrasts. Due to fault-endogenous force on the upper surface of the earth, some fault valley, ramp valley have been formed. Somewhere there are deep trenches, and somewhere there is sea. In some places there are snow-filled glaciers and mountain ranges, where there is no trace of vegetation, then there are also marshy places, which are full of oddities and mysteries. Have we ever thought, what is the reason for all these differences? The answer is –  Internal Structure Of The Earth  Mainly two types of forces work on the earth, which are as follows – Endogenous forces – By these, disparities are created on the earth. Like – Earthquake, Tsunami, Long term force etc. Exogenous Forces – These are the plane stabilizing forces of the earth. Like – flowing water, sea water, glacier, wind etc. Genetic Terminology - Genetics 1. Endogenous Force As we said above, inequalities are created on the earth by endoge...

Different Branches and Sub-Branches of Science and Their Fields of Study

Science Science is a very wide field. There are various branches and sub-branches of science. It is mainly divided into two parts Natural Science and Social Science. Natural Science is again divided into two parts Physical Science and Biological Science, which are further divided into various branches and sub-branches. While various subjects of Arts Group have been kept under Social Science. Indian Classical Dance Form Different Branches of Science and Their Fields of Study  Animal Science or Zoology - Zoology: Detailed study of different types of living and dead animals Botany - Study of different types of plants and their activities.

Bt Toxin

Bt Crop Containing Bt Toxin Gene Bt refers to Bacillus thuringiensis i.e. Bt crop contains the amount of toxin obtained from the above bacterium or rather Bt toxin is formed in these crops which is active only when the crop is eaten by insects. In this way, after eating the crop, this toxin becomes active by going into the intestine of the insect and the insect dies. Pongal : A South Indian Festival Now the question arises that how did this poison reach inside the plants. Bt bacteria store many toxin proteins inside their spores and this toxin protein is made by the Bt toxin gene present inside the bacterium, that is, this toxin is produced by the Bt toxin gene. By biotechnology, this toxin gene is isolated from the bacterium and put in the gene of crop plants, due to which this toxin starts forming inside the crop plants as well. Exogenous Forces - Weathering and Erosion When Bt toxin is in the cell of bacteria or crop plants, then it is in dormant state and at this time it is called...
